A Young Brokers' Experience.

thought would surprise the boys and
make a reputation by bold purchase. L
ran over to New York, got sure tip
from one of the best known operators in
Wall street. The next day 1 began in

the stock went. l had given the point
to buy to a number of friends and they
followed my advice. Well, the upshot of
it was that l lost some SO, 900. and be-
tween my friends there was as much
more dropped. 1t was a lesson to me
which l shall not soon forget. learned
afterward that the New Yorker had been
quietly selling the same stock which he
had advised me to purchase for some
time previous to giving me the point. =

A Funeral in Corea.

A Corean funeral is a sad affair. The
female relatives, at least, do not accom-
pany the body to the grave, and the
mourning is done at the house and at the
grave Of at alb by hired professional
mourners. If the dead man was very
poor he is carried to his grave on bier
of simplest construction, borne by two
men, who often set their burden on the
ground as they rest. The body is shielded
from sight only by semi-cylinder Of
paper, and it is placed in the grave with
no coffin to hinder contact with the earth.
The cost of burial in such case Is only
about $2.-SeOul Cor. New York Post.

SUBSCRIPTIONS :
Methods of a Famous ouartette.

Whittier once said that Hawthorne,
Emerson, Longfellow and himself had
always been friends. There were no
jealousies and each took pride in the sue
cess of the others. They would exchange
notes upon their productions, and if one
saw a kindly notice of the other it was al
ways cut out and sent to him. Hawthorne
was by the others regarded as the great
est master of the English language,
Whittier describes him as unlike any of
the rest, for he never had any method.
When he felt like it he wrote, and neither
had the health nor the patience to revise
his work afterward. Emerson would not
only revise his manuscript carefully, but
frequently reworded the whole on the
proof sheets. Longfellow, too, was a very
careful writer. He would lay his work
by and then revise it. He would often
consult with his friends about his pro-
auctions before they were given to the
world. 81 was not so fortunate, SAYS
the Quaker poet. st have lived mostly

ciates. What writing 1 have done has

LEFT HANDED PEoPLE.-Dr. Louis
Jubert has just published book on
The Left-Handed, - in which he treats
inexhaustively OF the clsss of persons
who are more dextrous, If we may use
suoh pun, with the sinister than with
dexter hand. He says that no traveller
has yet come into contact with a purely
left-handed race, but there are some
tribes which, from immemoriel time,
have given preference 10 the use OF tie
left hand. Among such tribes, however,
not more than seventy per cant. are
left-handed. 1t is sometimes the rule
among such tribes to account the left
handed side, instead of the right, as the
place OF honor. He prints a curious
appendix by DR.. Monro, who has made
extensive studies of the physiological
peculiarities of the criminal class.
DR.. Monro asserts that he has found
among the condemned criminals twenty
five per cent. who were left-handed
while a comparative research among
other persons has convinced him that
the proportion of the left-handed is not
above nine per cent. This would seem
a sort of justification of the moral appli-
cation of the word " sinister

BORDEN, a correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Record has this to say am glad
to see people are taking this sensible
view of the country question. There is
no such place as the country 10 live in if
one live properly in it. The trouble is
that when people go to the country they
ignore all the laws of hygiene, and dis
regard all the rules that they have lived
by, and The consequence is that they
come home in the fail with fevers or
malarial diseases, and curse the country
as their cause, when the trouble is en-
tirely with themselves The country Is
all right it is only that they don't know
how ID live there. They sit out at
hightfall without anything on their
heads or around their shoulders, they
walk in the grass when it is wet with
dew, they drink iced milk by the goblet
full, and they live altogether in the
most reckless and desperate manner, and
then they blame the country. There is
no place that / know of where people
can sit out of doors, particularly just
Ifter sundown, without hat or a wrap
# some kind, and it is impossible for a
person to begin drinking milk by the
gobletful without bringing Oh bilious
attack. Milk IS about the richest food
hat person can take, and those who
are unused to il have to take it by de-
grees. l was talking to an old country
doctor :he other day on this very sub
ject, and he said just SO long as people
would drink milk in quantities, as such
people do when they go to the country,
/ just so long would they suffer the con-
! sequences. They must take to II by
! degrees, and when their stomachs shall
/ have become used TO milk they can, If
! they want to, live on 1t entirely without
any other food. | know one man who

Cows FROM THE CHANNEL ISLANDS.

Cows FROM THE CHANNEL ISLANDS.
Considerable confusion exists in the
minds of many farmers in regard to the
terms "Alderney," jersey and
Guernsey as applied to cows from the
Channel Islands or their defendants
bred in this country. In word, they
don't quite know the distinguishing
traits between so-called Jersey COW
and an Alderney, tor instance. Prop
erly speaking, an Alderney COW is one
from the island of Alderney or its dtrect
defendant, Just as Jersey is, properly
speaking, a COW from the island Of
Jersey. The fact, however, that the
cattle imported from these several Chan
mel Islands are substantially the same
the islands having a similar appearance
and belonging to the same geological
formation-rendersi 1t OF small impor-
tance which name is applied.
The fact that but few other than
Jerseys are imported 20 this country
from the Channels Islands has naturally
encouraged the use Of the term Jersey
for the Channel Islands cows and their
defendants.

ADVICE TO COUNTRY GIRLs.-City
life IS not ali that it is painted. 1t has
its pleasures and conveniences, but it
also has its serious drawbacks. Before
making the plunge into the city life
country girls should ask themselves
what is really gained by It.
Perhaps in their quiet homes some
stray advertisement has reached them.
promising to young women high sal
aries and light work. Hundreds of
these advertisements are framed fol the
purpose of deceiving the unwary. They
accomplish their purpose, however and
lsIge number of young. girls rush
up TO the city, dazzled by the generous
prOfusion of promises.
a girl OF a farm answers ono OF these
advertisements. Life may have been
slow at home, but there was good food
and in plenty, and there was some one
to care for in the old farmhouse. When
she goes to the big city, she finds that
the Light wark" consists in working
all day in badly lighted workshop,
where scores Of other girls and women
are employed, at wages hardly high
enough to keep body and soul togeth-
er.
We know what often comes next.
The girl has left home she is ashamed
or unwilling to return, and she must
take the conquences, oft times one OF
the two things-shame or suffering.

and next in the iniquity of the streets

remorse may be deadened. Ii she Is To

Better remain at home than risk
the failure which attends so many girls
who go to the city in pursuit OF high
pay and light work. 1t the saddest OF
all misunderstanding a country home

large town.
